Volunteer: Network Up Career Mentor (short-term mentoring)Network Up is a short-term mentoring program offered by Britepaths and the Financial Empowerment Center at South County that matches under- or unemployed men or women with a volunteer mentor. Mentors and mentees meet virtually two to five times for a conversation focused on helping the mentee create or expand his/her professional network; and establish a career strategy and job search plan. We especially need mentors who work or have worked in the fields of technology/IT, nonprofits, and accounting, but we welcome professionals in all fields in Northern Virginia/DMV. This has traditionally been an in-person activity, but mentors and mentees are meeting via phone and zoom or other virtual platforms while Covid-19 protocols are in place.
Mentors provide a wealth of experience, knowledge, and networking connections to help mentees land - and succeed in - the right job for them! Are You Eligible to be a Mentor?
